The hour was almost gone, and the corner door of Lou Mansion creaked open, and a plump figure appeared in the crack of the door, so majestic.
When the person walked out of the corner door, I saw clearly that she was a middle-aged woman wearing heavy makeup, and the powder puff on her face was falling off.
This woman came with a graceful appearance, arranged flowers, wore a scarlet crepe with five colors of thread, trailing a sweat towel and hanging a sachet.
In fact, this woman is not ugly, but her skin is a little dark and her eyes are quite big. However, her eyebrows are too thick. At that time, women regarded thin eyebrows as beautiful, and they paid attention to eyebrows that looked like distant mountains.
"Chun Niang, when you come back from shopping for groceries, come here and drink some tea to moisten your throat. I've prepared Nanmu tea for you."
The speaker was a thin man dressed as a concierge, with two puddles of eye droppings in the corners of his eyes, staring at the woman's fat buttocks.
The woman named Chun Niang didn't look back, she just waved her hand back casually. She had an extremely plump figure, and her fat buttocks were round and round with sharp curves. She twisted and twisted as she walked, which was quite charming.
It's so charming that it makes people salivate.
This woman is not very old, she is only thirty-five or sixteen years old now. She works full-time as a shopper in the back house of Lou Mansion, and she has a low and powerful position.
Chun Niang had just walked more than fifty steps when a not very neat figure flashed out from a street corner not far away, and she followed her staggeringly.
As soon as Chun Niang hurriedly stepped forward to the threshold of a rouge and gouache shop, the shopkeeper greeted her with a smile: "Oh, you haven't been to the shop for a while. This morning I was still wondering why this magpie was always in front of the door.
He kept chattering, it turned out that he was a distinguished guest."
"Come on, come on, come in and rest for a while, I'll introduce you to the new makeup."
"Please come inside quickly, buddy? Where's the guy? Come here quickly and give Madam a cup of good tea."
A boy of thirteen or fourteen years old ran over quickly and poured a cup of hot tea for Chun Niang.
He picked up the hot tea, took a sip of it, and said, "Shopkeeper Wu, the Shu tea in your shop is pretty good!"
Shopkeeper Wu immediately beamed: "Oh, you are an expert after all. To be honest, a merchant from Fengzhou brought this to me, and the price is not low. I thought that boy was cheating on me, hehe, today's lady is actually
I tasted it for my little one..."
Chun Niang glanced at the door and waved impatiently: "Okay, Shopkeeper Wu, you actually asked me to try tea for you. If you drink it to the point of diarrhea, I'll see if I don't tear down your shop!"
”
Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly crossed his hands and saluted: "Hey, what are you talking about? Even if you borrow a little more courage from me, I won't dare to trick you."
Chun Niang waved her hands again and said: "Okay, okay, this is not the first time I've been here. Stop talking about useless nonsense. Hurry up and put you...in your shop...gudonggudong..." without saying anything.
After finishing, I drank a cup of hot tea like a cow.
Shopkeeper Wu responded quickly and asked the boy to bring the newly arrived rouge and gouache on a tray. Chun Niang was responsible for the purchase of clothes and rouge and gouache for the female family members of the back house in the Lou Mansion. She was his big customer and could not be neglected.<
/p>
Shopkeeper Wu pointed at the tray and said with excitement: "Madam, look at these, these are the goods that have just come in. This is called rose petals. They collect the best rose petals and use a clean stone mortar to slowly pound the petals into thick pieces."
After pulping, filter the juice with fine gauze, then cut the newly reeled silk into the size of the mouth of a rouge vat, soak it in the flower juice, wait until it is completely soaked, take it out and dry it in the sun. Oh, by the way, beef marrow and pig pancreas are also added.
Such as this, this can increase the oiliness of the rouge and make it moister when applied to the face..."
"There is also the Jade Girl Peach Blossom Powder, which contains Motherwort and other Chinese medicinal materials, which can brighten the skin and keep youth. The most rare thing is this rouge box. It is not made of ordinary bamboo tubes. It has a jade rouge button and a shell flip-top.
Rouge buttons and other styles."
"The piece I recommend to you is called a ring-shaped heart-piercing box. Its interior is divided into several grids of different sizes. In addition to rouge, it can also accommodate jewelry, etc... and there are lipsticks and sandalwood mouths over there.
There are all kinds of red lips, red lips, crimson lips and hey lips..."
Shopkeeper Wu was frothing and peddling his goods, but he found that Chun Niang was not interested today. She just played with the ring-shaped heart-piercing box and glanced outside the door from time to time.
Shopkeeper Wu was surprised and said: "Madam, these new products in the store are not worthy of your judgment? Please wait a moment, there are some products of higher quality in the store, I will bring them to you..."
p>
Chun Niang paused her tea cup and interrupted her: "No, no, I'm not here to buy rouge water in your store today."
He glanced at the young man standing aside and said, "Where are the other men in your store? I remember there is a man named Dazhu, who is quite strong. Is he in the store today? Can you summon him?"
Shopkeeper Wu was puzzled and said in surprise: "Madam, why should you find a strong man? If you can't carry the goods, I will send someone to deliver them to your house."
Chun Niang raised her thick black eyebrows and said with a displeased look on her face: "You are so verbose, I need to be strong!"
Shopkeeper Wu laughed and said: "Madam, what a coincidence, Dazhu quit his job and went home to get married last month. However, if you want to be strong, there is a new guy Shuanzi who is as good as Dazhu, but
Shuanzi... I'm afraid this person's appearance is not as good as yours..."
Chun Niang made the final decision: "It doesn't matter, it's him! Shopkeeper, go to the backyard and find me a more secluded room."
People were coming and going in the hall, and it was very chaotic.
"This..."
"Huh? How? What's the difficulty?"
"No problem, no problem, madam, please come quickly!" Shopkeeper Wu nodded and bowed in a gesture of invitation. Chun Niang supported the shorter girl to stand up, twisting her plump buttocks and walking towards the backyard.
Shopkeeper Wu slapped the dumbfounded young man on the back of his head and whispered: "You blind thing, why don't you call Shuan Zi to the backyard, oh, by the way, let him clean up and freshen up...
…”
The little boy ran away as fast as he could.
……
Early in the morning, Yan Qianshi came to the Prince Consort's Mansion to look for Chen Chang and Shui Ling'er. The disciple let him in after receiving orders from the eldest lady and Ma Liang.
Mr. Yan Xiu was unable to come because he occasionally felt cold, but he also asked his grandson to inform him of the situation of Chen Chang and Shui Ling'er.
Under the guidance of a family member, Yan Qianshi rushed to the small courtyard excitedly, but only saw Shui Ling'er. After asking, he found out that Chen Chang had gone out early in the morning.
"Oh, brother... Oh, Miss Shui, just rest here and rest peacefully. I'll go look for him outside." Yan Qianshi and Shui Ling'er hurriedly said goodbye.
When I was going out, I happened to meet Ma Liang. After discussing it, they went to look for Chen Chang together.
Both of them were worried that something would go wrong with Chen Chang, who was unfamiliar with Jiangling. Ma Liang was very familiar with Jiangling, while Yan Qianshi followed Ma Liang with a dark look in his eyes.
"Hurry up. If you move like this, you won't be able to find him even after dark!" Ma Liang was furious when he saw Yan Qianshi walking slowly behind.
"Oh, Ma...it's not like you don't know that my body..." Yan Qianshi looked at Ma Liang with a bitter face, feeling very aggrieved. His body skills were not as fast as those of a practitioner like Ma Liang. It was only a moment ago.
I have been sweating for a long time.
Seeing Yan Qianshi's body trembling with fat, Ma Liang half-smiled and said, "I said, Mr. Chen Langjun is also a scholar. How come he doesn't have these stinky problems like yours? I'm most annoyed by the tone of scholars.
I want to slap them!"
Yan Qianshi was dissatisfied and argued: "Ma Xiaowei, I, the great ancestor of the Liang Dynasty, have a keen nature, a young boy who is dedicated to learning, has a thorough understanding of Confucianism and Mysticism, has composed thousands of poems, and is straightforward and convenient. He is also well-mannered and has surpassed the ancient and modern times!
I have so many things to do, but I still can’t put it down, until Wu Night.”
"Making "Zhizhi Xiao Jingyi", "Book of Changes", and the sixty-four hexagrams, "Xi", "Classical Chinese", "Preface Hexagrams" and other meanings, "Leshe Yi", "Mao's Poems and Questions", "Spring and Autumn Questions and Answers"
There are more than 200 volumes of "Shang Shu Dayi", "The Doctrine of the Doctrine", "Confucius' True Sayings" and "Laozi's Comments", all of which rectify the confusion of the early Confucians and establish the decrees of the ancient sages. The princes and courtiers all expressed their doubts, and Emperor Gaozu provided explanations.
Modify Chinese studies, increase the number of students, establish five libraries, and install doctors of "Five Classics"..."
Although he didn't like to read rote books, he was not opposed to reading, and since he was a child, his grandfather Yan Xiu had used Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan as an example to educate him. Therefore, Ma Liang said that scholars were useless, and he was unhappy.
Ma Liang hummed: "That's right. Emperor Gaozu was a commoner and a vegetarian. He was not close to wine and sex. He broke up his house when he was fifty years old. Every winter month, at the fourth watch, he ordered to hold candles to see things and hold a pen to touch the cold, which made his hands chapped. But.
Even though he was so diligent, his country still perished, and the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty was more proud of the scribes than the warriors. Tell me, what's the use of reading so many books?"
Yan Qianshi was a scholar and couldn't explain why he met the soldiers, so he simply stopped arguing with Ma Liang.
The two of them inquired all the way to find Chen Chang. It would be difficult to find an ordinary scholar, but one of Chen Chang's arms was still hanging. He was very conspicuous when walking on the street. He even asked a few shops and they all said he had seen him. Pass this person.
Not long after, there was a lot of noise ahead, like bandits and bandits entering the city to plunder.
Yan Qianshi was so frightened that he quickly hid aside. Ma Liang stood up with his arms crossed and looked forward. When he saw the group of people, his face immediately dropped.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, you didn't see us coming, Mr. Yu, you're blind!"
"Boss Yu, there is a tea stall over there. My brothers' throats are all smoking. How about we go there and drink some tea to moisten our throats?"
Yan Qianshi didn't know these people, but Ma Liang was very familiar with them.
Yu Tou'er flaunted his power in front of ordinary people, but he was very well-behaved in front of Ma Liang. He hurriedly restrained his men and stepped forward to answer.
Ma Liang scolded him a few words, then changed the topic and asked him if he had seen Chen Chang.
Unexpectedly, I asked the right person this question. According to Mr. Yu, he saw Chen Chang near Lou Mansion early in the morning.
At first, Yu Tou'er was a little skeptical about Chen Chang's knowledge of the Wang family. Now that he saw Ma Liang asking about his whereabouts, he no longer had any doubts and became more determined to get into the Wang family's lap through Chen Chang.
Ma Liang sighed and said to Yan Qianshi: "You are the same brother. You can't marry a girl from any other family, but you are engaged to this girl from the Lou family. Tsk tsk..."
"Is Miss Lou bad?" Yan Qianshi asked doubtfully.
"It's not just bad, it's simply... let's go, let's go, find Chen Langjun first, don't let him suffer in the Lou family!"
